5. A cyclist is travelling along a straight horizontal road. The cyclist starts from rest at point
A on the road and accelerates uniformly at 0.6 m sí for 20 seconds. He then moves at
constant speed for 4T seconds, where T < 20. He then decelerates uniformly at 0.3 m sí

and after T seconds passes through point B on the road. The distance from A to B is 705 m.

along the road with constant acceleration 2 m sí2 for 4 seconds and then continues to
move along the road at constant speed. At the instant when the cyclist stops accelerating,

acceleration 4 m sí2 in the same direction as the cyclist. The motorcyclist has been moving
for T seconds when she overtakes the cyclist.

5. Two trains, P and Q, move on horizontal parallel straight tracks. Initially both are at rest
in a station and level with each other. At time t = 0, P starts off and moves with constant
acceleration for 10 s up to a speed of 25 m sí1 and then moves at a constant speed of

25 m sí1. At time t = 20, where t is measured in seconds, train Q starts to move in the same
direction as P. Train Q accelerates with the same initial constant acceleration as P, up to
a speed of 40 m sí1 and then moves at a constant speed of 40 m sí1. Train Q overtakes P at
time t = T, after both trains have reached their constant speeds.
(a) Sketch, on the same axes, the speed-time graphs of both trains for 0 - t - T.

(b) Find the value of t at the instant when both trains are moving at the same speed.

starts from rest at A and moves with constant acceleration until it reaches its maximum

traffic lights at A and B which are 2125m apart. The car starts from rest at A and moves

speed before moving with constant deceleration, coming to rest at B. The magnitude of
the deceleration is twice the magnitude of the acceleration.

Alternative: Total time to decelerate to rest = 12/0.3 = 40 B1

First B1 for basic shape. Allow if ‘extra triangle’ on end included,

Second DB1 : may use, 20, 20 + 4T, 20 + 5T

First M1 for attempt to find constant speed (v = u + at or a = gradient)

N.B. For total area, could see:
